| Summary | "I'll Leave It To You" by Noel Coward is a light comedy play written in the early 20th century. The narrative revolves around the Dermott family, who face financial troubles after the death of their father. The story unfolds at their home, Mulberry Manor, introducing the family members as they grapple with their situation and await the arrival of their wealthy Uncle Daniel, who may be their last hope for assistance. The opening of the play sets the scene during a chilly winter afternoon, just days before Christmas. We meet various members of the Dermott family: Sylvia, the practical eldest daughter; Bobbie, the carefree and dreamy son; and Joyce, the youngest, who seeks comfort in familial affection. They express concern over their mother's worries about money, hinting at their precarious financial state. As they discuss ways to contribute to the family's survival, their Uncle Daniel is introduced as the potential solution to their troubles. Unknown to them, Daniel has some unconventional ideas about wealth and legacy that could dramatically change their lives. (This is an automatically generated summary.) |
